He Could Not Tell His Own Baby.

in an uptown photograph gallery the other
day "WeI, l know I'm supposed to, but six
months old babies look SO much alike, and
this is our first I'm free 10 confess that I'm
not positive about that being my baby's pict-
ure." The photograph was cabinet size, and
the photographer was very much surprised
that the paternal parent could not recognize
it. Its a perfect picture of the original,
whether it's your child or not, remarked the
artist. ooh, yes, III admitit a good picture,

A Turtle i'm the Sea.

Some years ago when doing a walk
ing tour in England with friend we
left the pretty little seaside resort of
D., in Devonshire, for T, five
miles distant, also situated by the sea.
AS we were about leaving D., I
asked the hotel proprietor, on bidding
him adieu, if he could recommend US
to a nice hotel at our next halting
place. He named the "King's Arms
said we should find the host jolly fell
low, and, above all, he was the only
man in that part of the country who
could give us basin of real turtle
soup, and cheap, too. We could
scarcely believe it, and the few miles
flew by in joyful anticipation of our
first course. Arrived at the Kings
Arms" we sought "mine host, appar-
emily very genial soul, but to our in
tense surprise on mentioning turtle
soup he flew into towering rage, said
we could see his bill of fare, and If
that didn't suit us we could leave it.
We should have thought him quite in
sulting and turned our backs upon him,
but were curious to know what angered
him. We stayed, had very good
dinner, minus the soup, but saw no
more of the proprietor during our
short sojourn Of the waiter, how
ever, we inquired about the turtle soup
and his abruptness to us. He smiled
and said:
"Well, I'll tell e, gentlemen. Some
time ago there was a large dinner
comm off here and master bought
fine turtle in London (Which cost him
e5) about a week before the dinner,
and boosted to everybody that he was
goin' to surprise the natives Well.
day or so before the feast gentle
man told master the turtle would enjoy
sea bath, which would improve him
for the soup, so master took him down
to the beach, tied rope on his leg, and
sat down to watch his prize. Then"
said our informant, "the old beggar
(master) dropped off to sleep, let go
the rope, and SO the turtle went off to
sea and so boss has been leased to death
about it. '-Detr0it Free Press.

Language of the Ewes.

Long almond-shaped eyes, with thick
skinned eyelids that cover half the
pupil, are indicative of genius when
they are found in conjunction with a
brow which is full over the eyebrows,
and which has one perpendicular line
between the eyebrows. have fire.
quently noticed this combination in the
faces of distinguished literary men and
artists. The almond-shaped eye, how
ever, even without this peculiar form
of forehead, always means a suscepti-
BILE, impressionable nature. Eyes
which are large, open and very trans
parent, and which sparkle with rapid
motion under well-defined eyelids, de-
note elegance in taste, somewhat sus-
ceptible temper, and great interest in
the opposite sex. Eyes with weakly
marked eyebrows above them, and with
thinly-growing eye-lashes which are
completely without any upward curve,
denote feeble constitution and mel
ancholy disposition. Deep sunken and
small blue eyes, under bony, almost
perpendicular forehead, are indicative
of selfish and cold-hearted natures. Eyes
which show not only the whole of the iris,
but also some of the white both above
and below it, denote restless, uncer-
tain nature, incapable of repose or of
concentrated thought on any subject.
The eyes of voluptuary move slowly
under heavy lids. Round-shaped eyes
are never seen in the face of highly
intellectual person, but they denote a
kindly, truthful, and innocent nature.
Eyes which (when seen in profile) are
so protuberant as to run almost parallel
with the profile of the nose, show a
weak organization of the body and mind.
Eyes rather close together denote cum
ming and an untruthful disposition.
Eyes rather far apart are indicative of
frankness and simplicity of purpose
an honest and guileless nature. When,
however, the eyes are very far apart,
they denote stupidity. Eyes with
sharply defined angles, sinking at the
corners, show subtlety of mind: the
sharper the angle and the more it sinks,
the greater the delicacy of perception
it denotes; but when very much devel-
oped it shows also craftiness amounting
to deceit. Well-opened eyes, with
smooth eyelids and steady and some
what fixed glance, denote sincerity. |
Lines running along the eyelids from
side to side, and passing out upon the |
temples, denote habitual laughter
cheerful temperament, or, at any rate,
one in which the sense of fun is strong. |
